<p>This proposal adds syntactic support for asynchronous iteration using the <i>AsyncIterable</i> and <i>AsyncIterator</i> protocols.  It introduces a new <i>IterationStatement</i>, `for`-`await`-`of`, and adds syntax for creating async generator functions and methods.</p>

<p>See <a href="https://github.com/tc39/proposal-async-iteration">the proposal repository</a> for background material and discussion.</p>
